Answer:

x = 9 1/3 ounces of almonds

Step-by-step explanation:

Ounces of almonds : raisins

= 7 : 5

Total = 7 + 5

= 12

How many ounces of almonds would be in a one-pound bag (16 ounces) of this trail mix

Let

x = Ounces of almonds needed

x = 7 /12 × 16

= 112 /12

= 9 4/12

= 9 1/3

x = 9 1/3 ounces
